This revolting weirdo carries a pile of its own p**p around on its back 💩
​
​This is not actually uncommon for beetle larvae. Some have a f***l shield that is still grossly wet and gooey, while others encase their dried p**p in a case like we see here, for camouflage, or parasite deterrent purposes.

​This is some sort of leaf beetle larvae (Cassidinae), and amongst its p**p backpack it is also hosting a segmented parasite.

I would like to tell you a little about myself. Many people also know me as a potato bug, Jerusalem cricket, Skull Insect, Childface, or Mother of Scorpion. People get scared when they see me and want to kill me. Reality is that I'm running from you.
I'm not a spider nor scorpion nor cricket, and I HAVE NO POISON. My only weapon is my mandibles. With them I feed off the organic waste that is found next to garden plants.
We have a very important role in the environment, because we help plant growth, thanks to removing the earth and thus allowing soil oxygenation.
My life span is a year.
